Highlights of PFS results
Current strategy prioritizes the development of the near-surface/ higher-grade multi-million ounce reserve as a standalone operation. The PFS demonstrates a potential mining operation characterized by robust production profile, low operating cost and modest capital expenditures. The PFS assumes a gold price of US$ 1,600/oz and a silver price of US$ 24/oz.
